You do not have to have an outfitter to hunt elk in NM

I can't recommend one, but I will say hunting elk in the mountains & hills in New Mexico is fun and quite a challenge. Definitely worth the time and money.

It's true, but choosing a licensed outfitter ups your chances of drawing a permit as a nonresident.

Draw Quotas
State Law now requires:
• 84% of public draw hunt licenses go to New Mexico residents,
• 10% of public draw hunt licenses go to residents and nonresidents contracting with a New Mexico Registered Outfitter,
• 6% of public draw hunts go to nonresidents who choose not to use a New Mexico Registered Outfitter.

I think landowner tags are a free for all. It's been almost a decade for me but I knew there was a reason I chose to apply with a guide.
